Arizona technically still not eliminated from playoff's...plus arizona tends to play light years better at HOME than they do on the road...if you look at the Arizona schedule they have played a lot of good teams and lost very closely...(lost to ravens by 3, Giants by 4, in Seattle by 3, beat SF, Dallas, and Philly)..i think Cleveland is pretty much packing it in this season...plus with the media all over them this week about McCoy getting demolished by Harrison...i know Cleveland plays good defense but I dont see them scoring more than 13 points in this game...Arizona (-6.5) Cleveland- 10 Arizona- 23 |

lookout for the backdoor cover for KC...Orton is starting this week..not the lolli-pop arm Palko..look for orton to work on some chemistry with bowe for next season..and GB may look to pull some starters with a comfortable lead come the 4th quarter after losing Jennings for the next 2-3 weeks...GB is looking to go 16-0 but they also would like to be healthy come playoff time...this is going to be KC's last big game of the season..and they will play this like a super bowl to try to knock off the undefeated team...of course i think GB WILL STILL WIN...but I wont bet my money and lay the 14...NO PLAY FOR ME GLTA

NEW ENGLAND (-7.5)..before this line goes up...You better believe that Brady and Belichick are loving the fact that they are not even being talked about in this game...i'll put my money on Belichick before I put it on John Fox...3 weeks ago this line would have been capped at 10 points....Patriots will come out firing on all cylinders and will jump out fairly quickly...Pats will be up by 2 TD's at the half...this will be a game where Tebow will actually have to throw the ball more than 20 times...good luck with that...I know the Pats D is has been pretty horrific this year but watch the Pats stack the box and force Tebow to eventually throw which is not his game...if you can get this line at -7.5 then jump on it Patriots- 31 Broncos- 17 |

this is gonna be one of those grind it out games...Chicago offense has become one dimensional without cutler and forte..their passing game is just bad now..seattle has been playing pretty well as of late..their defense has definitely stepped it up..not sure how well they will play on the road though...this game will come down to which team makes more plays on defense and/or special teams...and last I checked Hester did not practice Friday and is Questionable...Chicago has only scored 13 points total the last 2 games against KC and Denver..this is a big game for both teams that are still not eliminated from a playoff birth... but I'd go with the hotter team right now and thats Seattle...I can this game coming down to a field goal....take the points.. Seattle +3.5 |

not so fast...Tenn needs a win here to prevent Houston from clinching the division (if Houston beats Cincy)...CJ finally starting to run the ball like he is supposed to...and all 3 Saints losses have come on the road..Tennessee defense is better than most people give them credit for...this is a huge game here for the titans...saints 7-1 indoors and 2-2 outdoors..and Mark Ingram will be inactive this week...im sure a lot of people saw this game at Saints (-4) and though it was a gift...if its too good to be true then in probably is...with that said I will not be touching this game..but I can definitely see this game coming down to a game winning FG going either way...good luck

not playing this game...although very interested to see what happens here...how is TJ Yates gonna respond to playing on the road?..I expect to see A LOT of Arian Foster here...Cincinnati should come out fired up after losing 3 out of the last 4 games to Pitt and Baltimore and need to win to stay in the playoff hunt..houston looking to pull away from Tenn in the division..when I first saw this line at HOU +3 I got excited..but now im not so sure..Houston has a great D..and Cincy has a good D...I feel Cincy needs this game a little bit more right now..especially at home..no Schaub, no Andre...no play for me...just wanted to throw my thinking out there for anybody looking to play this one...GOOD LUCK!

personally I wouldn't touch this game...not sure how much I like Atlanta on the road and it sounds like Turner is knicked up with a groin injury but will still play..Carolina has been playing better of late but then again their defense is just awful...buy the half point and roll with Atl (-2.5) if you can..Atlanta has a lot more to play for than carolina at this point..Cam will play well like he has but Atlanta probably prevails.. Falcons 28-24 |

this game has blowout written all over it...NE took off last week against indy...belichick will have these guys ready to roll this week...plus NE needs the W to keep up with Pittsburgh and Baltimore at 10-3 for the #1 seed...and grossman lost his security blanket TE due to a suspension... Patriots 34-17 |

Got SD (-6) on my card...SD knows their best shot at getting to playoffs is to win the division, if not their only shot..they can be tied with Oakland for second place after this week since the raiders are playing at GB..then just gotta worry about catching Denver..Chargers will play well at home against a reeling Buffalo squad that has to travel to the west coast. Buffalo will score some points but not nearly enough to keep up with the Chargers this week. Buffalo offense hasnt been the same since they lost Fred Jackson, and their starting nose tackle...plus their TE chandler is already ruled out this week... Chargers 31-21 |

well I dont see the Chiefs being able to score much in this game..Palko has only one TD since he has started and it was a lucky hail mary to Mccluster at the end of the half last week against the Bears...Jets in a must win at home and Bowe will be on Revis Island all day..only chance KC has to cover is if their defense can limit the Jets to 17 points or they have a special teams return by Mccluster...I got this game at Jets (-8) on my parlay card...i probably wouldnt play this game at (-11)..but i think Rex will have the Jets ready for this one.... Jets 24-10 |

Memphis, Kansas and UNC all have the look of a national champ to me... UCLA doesn't... gotta bet against 'em... (emphasized because someone predicted UCLA to win it all... no way!)
now, let me say that CStatedragons gave a dead on analysis and all should read it... don't make this harder than it is... it's this simple... UCLA could never do what Memphis did to Texas... not a chance! Memphis is simply a better team, and not just by a smidge... they are on a mission, and UCLA isn't the team i'm gonna bet on to stop them... they impress me not! Thanks GoG....i appreciate you agreeing with my analysis! Memphis too much firepower for UCLA today....Memphis should finally earn the respect they deserve in this match-up |

I'll be honest...I have been against Memphis all tourney, saying how they played in the Conf. USA all year and really havent impressed me....I was also all over Texas to beat them last Sunday...After watching Memphis DOMINATE texas I felt like i was watching the Varsity team pick on the JV team.....Memphis was gettin easy baskets and played solid D all game..while it seemed like a struggle the entire game for Texas to score....Memphis was bigger, faster, and way more athletic...even though i originally picked UCLA to go to the finals and lose to Kansas, I gotta take Memphis over UCLA who has the deeper team in this match-up......thought this was interesting also:
during the season... UCLA lost to Texas 63-61, UCLA beat Mich.St. 68-63,
during the tourney: Memphis beat Mich.St. 92-74, Memphis beat Texas 85-67
gimme Memphis and lay the chalk

UNC has been fortunate enough to play EVERY game in this tournament so far basically at home..playing in Raleigh and Charlotte...when was the last time a team played every game in there home state up until the Final Four????......just b/c Kansas slipped by Davidson everybody is writing them off to lose already...lets not forget who Davidson beat to get to the Elite 8...Gonzaga, Georgetown, and a crushing win over Wisconsin....those seem like pretty legit teams to me...Davidson was a fast paced team who could play on both sides of the ball which allowed them to keep up with Kansas....I can't wait to see UNC show up in San Antonio with more fans rooting for their opponent for a change.......took Kansas to win it all in my bracket...and im not gonna stop now.....take the points and hoping this line goes up so maybe i can take Kansas ML as well...gimme those points.......Kansas +3..

Davidson has YET to see a team in this tournament with the athletisism that Kansas has. Both Wisconsin and Georgetown like to slow the pace down, and Davidson's tempo controlled both those games. Davidson is in for a RUDE awakening today my friends. Curry will get his points, but if the Kansas guards are on today, this game will be over early. It was a nice run, but Kansas will be too much for Davidson today after they see what a real team looks like.

said it last week against Butler and i'll say it again....Tennessee is a little overrated...SEC was weak this year...i dont care what anybody says....look at Tennessee's schedule...they played too many close games to mediocre teams....they were gettin dominated on the boards early on against American....and they slipped past a good Butler team....Louisville is playing great and they got a coach with alot of tourney experience.....oh and too make matters worse for Tennessee Chris Lofton their leading scorer is banged up....take Louisville and lay the chalk...and watch the Big East dominant this game!!
